Which of the following would have more momentum than fiona, a 313kg hippo, running at 8m/s?

kap26 [50]

Let's calculate the momentum of Fiona, given by the product between its mass and its speed:
$p=mv=(313 kg)(8 m/s)=2504 kg m/s$

Now let's compare it with the momentum of the other animals:
a) the mass of the sea turtle is missing, so we cannot calculate its momentum.
b) the momentum of the dolphin is
$p=mv=(150 kg)(18 m/s)=2700 kg m/s$
c) the momentum of the horse is
$p=mv=(380 kg)(4 m/s)=1520 kg m/s$
d) the momentum of the lion is
$p=mv=(190 kg)(11 m/s)=2090 m/s$

And we can see that the correct answer is b), because the momentum of the dolphin is greater than the momentum of Fiona.

A pizza delivery driver must make three stops on her route. She will first leave the restaurant and travel 4 km due north to the

topjm [15]

Explanation:

This question involves continuous displacement in various directions. When it becomes difficult to imagine, vector analysis becomes handy.

Let us denote each of the individual displacements by a vector. Consider the unit vectors $\vec{i}\textrm{ and }\vec{j}$ as the unit vectors in the direction of East and North respectively.

By simple calculations, we can derive the unit vectors $\vec{j},\frac{-\vec{i}-\vec{j}}{2}\textrm{ and }\frac{-\frac{1}{2}\vec{i}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\vec{j}}{2}$ in the directions North, $45^{o}$ South of West and $60^{o}$ North of West respectively.

So Total displacement vector = Sum of individual displacement vectors.

Displacement vector = $4(\vec{j})+6(\frac{-\vec{i}-\vec{j}}{2})+5(\frac{-\frac{1}{2}\vec{i}+\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\vec{j}}{2})=-4.25\vec{i}+3.165\vec{j}$

Magnitude of Displacement = $|-4.25\vec{i}+3.165\vec{j}|=5.3km$

∴ Total displacement = $5.3km$

What is NOT a raw minteral used in photosyntheisis

Yuliya22 [10]

The photosynthesis equation is :

H2O + CO2 + sunlight (energy) > C6H12O6 + O2

So water (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are the raw materials need for photosynthesis.

Determine a valid way of finding the wire’s diameter if you know the resistivity of the material, \rho , and can measure the cur

olganol [36]

Answer:

To find the diameter of the wire, when the following are given:

Resistivity of the material (Rho), Current flowing in the conductor, I, Potential difference across the conductor ends, V, and length of the wire/conductor, L.

Using the ohm's law,

Resistance R = (rho*L)/A

R = V/I.

Crossectional area of the wire A = π*square of radius

Radius = sqrt(A/π)

Diameter = Radius/2 = [sqrt(A/π)]

Making A the subject of the formular

A = (rho* L* I)V.

From the result of A, Diameter can be determined using

Diameter = [sqrt(A/π)]/2. π is a constant with the value 22/7

Explanation:

Error and uncertainty can be measured varying the value of the parameters used and calculating different values of the diameters. Compare the values using standard deviation
